Maybe we should pump the brakes on crowning these two as all time greats until they've at least won a playoff game or two.

It's the way things are on here... everyone else are geniuses and the coaches here have no idea what they're doing... it's exhausting after a while

I'm ready for a change, but I also know Rivera had a good run here, and that nothing productive is going to be done by firing him now.

At one point, people on here were frothing at the mouth over the idea of Beane being our GM. Now people are blaming JR because he got poached.

This was my first thought....along with the fact that McDermott repeatedly turned to Nathan Peterman who makes Jimmy Clausen look like Tom Brady.

You can't request to interview an existing GM or head coach.

The only mechanism that would make this possible would be a trade. Seriously doubt Buffalo is down for that, but even if they were heaven only knows what they would ask in return.

Throw in that David Tepper has no association with either of these guys so why would he even look in this direction?

I am pretty sure you can REQUEST it.

Call me when McDermot goes 15-1...

The only reason Ron got 15-1 was because of McDermott's defense and Cam playing lights out. It was McDermott's defense, schemes and play calling. All Ron did for the defense is listen to McDermott and agree if he liked his ideas. Wilks also used McDermott's scheme after the Bills hired Sean.

Ron wanted Wilks from the beginning, Richardson wanted McDermott. 15-1 had nothing to do with Ron's defense, offense or play calling, because he did neither.

Bills has Leslie play calling defense, however he is also using McDermott's schemes. Big difference between one head coach riding the coattails of someone else's work (Ron), whilst another is putting his skills and experience to use (McDermott).

Sean McDermott turned out to be what we all thought Ron Rivera should be.

lets not get carried away, Love McDermott, but to pretend that he has done anything to date to Surpass Rivera is a joke. Not saying he eventually may not. Just that McDermott hasnt won a playoff game, or even won his own division once.

    • Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it, although I think we have enough 4th line grinders right now between Carrier Robinson and Janakowski  down there, i actually really love our 4th line.            We need scoring in the top 6, and a RHD at this point its definitely coming via trade.            Rasmus Andersson I hear may be on the market, it feels like every couple of seasons someone links us to Erik Karlsson.       As far as centers go,  Marco Rossi (even though we have a ton of smurf already)     Jordan Kyrou is an intriguing option if he is available.           At this point i think Rod should just move Jarvis to his natural center position to give us a 1B center...   yes hes also a smurf but he plays way bigger than he is stylistically.

    • The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
